PS Seminar Series- PhD Exit Seminar - How does scald pathogen infect barley? Characterisation of the virulence factors of Rhynchosporium commune...
Rhynchosporium commune is a pathogenic fungus causing barley scald disease. Although scald disease has become a significant issue for commercial barley growers, the molecular mechanisms underpinning the disease are poorly understood.
E&E Seminar: Switching partners – diverse mycorrhizal partnerships with eucalypts »
The vast majority of plants are mycorrhizal, with two of the most dominant types (arbuscular [AM] and ectomycorrhizal [EcM]) existing at opposite ends of multiple spectra.
BSB Seminar: Molecular structure of the intact bacterial flagellar basal body »
Bacterial flagella self-assemble a strong, multi-component drive shaft that couples rotation in the inner membrane to the microns-long flagellar filament that powers bacterial swimming in viscous fluids.
PS Seminar Series - Gene regulatory dynamics of germinating seeds from bulk tissue to single-cell resolution »
Seeds provide 70% of global food resources, being the most valuable output from plant production. They also play a critical role in agriculture because the lifecycle of most crops begins from seed germination.
PS Seminar Series- PhD Exit Seminar- Tales of mitochondria: How have the roles of mitochondria in C4 plants affected respiratory metabolism? ...
C4 photosynthesis involves a number of biochemical and anatomical traits that significantly improve plant productivity under conditions that reduce the efficiency of C3 photosynthesis.
E&E Seminar: The enigmatic hemiclonal unisexual species complex in the freshwater fish genus Hypseleotris in eastern Australia »
Carp gudgeons in eastern Australia have evolved a complex and quirky system of hemiclonal unisexual reproduction.
PS Seminar Series - Right place, right time: Connecting soil Nitrogen and plant uptake for greener agriculture »
Nitrogen (N) is a primary nutrient that is essential to the survival of all living organisms. Crops are inefficient in their N use, losing 50-70% of applied N, which transforms to reactive nitrogen Nr, to the environment.

E&E Seminar: The importance of environment: from reproduction to cognition »
An individual’s environment can substantially impact its health, fitness, and the traits it invests energy to. This is something that I am particularly interested in and has been a focus of my research career to date.
